Follow me- trouble getting it to work #11

I try to replicate the setup apart from the Baro which I dont have the specific model .Is this still active project

I use the NRF24 as recommended how ever the result is that the

-Controller LED remain Lit and output of the GPS LAT and LON remains zero

-Tag I omitted the Baro as i dont have that particular model . and I see it transmitting the GPS data

suggest

thanks

I think it's fair to say this is not an active project these days. I have not used Cleanflight since about 2017, after moving to Ardupilot. I don't think I've used arduino since about 2019 either, after moving to STM32 for my projects.

In my opinion the best result for this type of thing would be from using Ardupilot, with a 'companion computer' receiving the GPS location of the tag. I tried this here, but not with arduino. I was using nRF51822 which have a very complicated build environment that I don't remember much about and couldn't really explain these days, even if I did feel like making a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOG8ymEmDYk

I see okie just want to follow up so far the i manage to get the LED to blink on radio contact, however I decided to have the WP mode place at 1. instead of 255 as I wanted to see if it updates the mission waypoint . so far it keeps setting waypoint 1 as Lat 0 and Lon 0 meaning it seems to be receiving signal from the controller. I yet to test the tag's GPS to see if it updates. id like to hear from you as im updating it for INAV use again . also the M9 and M10 GPS has some new changes. thanks. would be helpful to revisit. id wanted the tag as softserial for GPS so that its serial output can be directly UART radio to the controller and again on the controller soft serial to the UART to the Flight board

thats ok , I understand but Id notice the UBLX comments on the Tag seems to contradict which one on and which one is off . to note I try running it again and still got no GPS coordinates send to the controller all I got is 0.00 on lat and 0.00 on lon if theres is something I missed let me know thanks
